Tried to get the Produttori Orveto but it was gone in about 6 seconds.

2 Chateau Lane Malbec Las Cerezas Vineyard Yountville 2012

a lot of reruns so far today

I couldn’t click fast enough!!! What did they have just 1 bottle?

Got a roty g-c villages

They can’t give that Manzone Barolo away no matter how many times they put it up.

Finally grabbed some champagne

Like some kind of pathetic addict, I kept click on this lame site, only once again to watch them offer, and reoffer over and over again, a lot of plonk.

I said I wasn’t going to do it, but I did, and once again it was not worth the time and effort. I never learn.

Purchased 3 Campesino Alinas, basically based on notes of Loren Sonken from this board. I’m kind of jazzed about it. Beyond that nothing really tripped my trigger.

I didn’t look at all this time, not once.

Honestly, it felt great.

Try it next time Paul, you’ll love the freedom.

I feel almost proud that I have only made two purchases on LBW: the Robert Hunter BdN, and the Rousseau Tannat.

Was tempted by a couple of things but ultimately bought nothing this time.

That Tannat is excellent. Wish I was online when that popped up…

Grabbed 4 of the Campesino Baybos.

It was delicious. Wish I had bought more.

The Pierre Henri Muscadet that is up right now is quite decent. I bought nine of the '12 from LB and it was good for the price. Moreover, it improved over the course of those bottles. I looked back at my CT notes and saw that my last bottle, in Fall of '14, was the best one, which is usually a good sign. Based on that I’ve grabbed a six pack. I’d go for a case but I’ve found '15s to be just a hair on the riper side, and therefore don’t want to overdo it. Price now ($12) is the same as it was three years ago.

My fav thing to grab on the marathon is champagne. They often have grower champs for $25-50 with free shipping and a lot are great.

Vintage grower champs for $36 atm, in for 4

Anyone have thoughts on the 2002 Robert Hunter Brut de Noirs extended tirage that’s up now ?

I went in for 4. The only 2 notes on CT seemed pretty positive and for $24 its worth a shot.
